Story
We adopted Mickey from a rescue when he was about 2-3 months old. He is almost 7 years old now. We say his birthday is Thanksgiving every year, because that is our best guess for about when he was born. We had a baby in February and he doesn't like kids due to their sporadic movements, so it's time we find him a new, loving home now that our baby girl is on the move. Mickey loves to be outside. He has always had a doggie door so he can go outside as he pleases, and he loves that freedom. He enjoys napping in the sun. He likes to run, and likes to be chased in the backyard. He enjoys his daily walks. He likes cuddling but prefers to sleep alone. He is calm and very loving around his "mom" or "dad" but get very anxious when visitors come over so we keep him in a room away from visitors if we have people over. He needs to be in a home with no little children because he doesn't like unpredictability, especially in movement. He gets along with some dogs and not others.

Story
Lady, cattledog mix, 4 yo, 57 lb, spayed femaleLady is thin long-legged cattledog mix with the cutest face and floppy ears. She is curious and fascinated by all kinds of things. Lady spent months and months in limbo in boarding and was happy to join our gang and have a choice of playmates.  She is young and active, and needs a fenced yard.  Lady finds it most comforting to lie down close to you especially if she can somehow lean into you. It is hard to understand how this gentle angel, still almost a puppy, could be abandoned. We so hope to find stable loving home for her. Adoption fee $325. If interested please submit an adoption or foster application at http://sannicoladogrescue.com  January 17, 2025, 3:02 pm

Story
Meet sweet  Heather ... She has been in training for several weeks now, and she is ready to start meeting her forever family.  What will she need... patience, a few meet and greets at her training facilities by her interested adopters so she can get to know you.  A fur friend she would like to also get to know! LOVE, & cuddles, and did we mention the time to be a sweet family girl!   Here is her latest's report card!  We're thrilled to update you on  Heather 's progress this past week. We've successfully transitioned  Heather  to working fully off-leash and have begun practicing proper introductions to new people, both key steps in building her confidence and polishing her good doggie skills! In the first attached video, you'll see  Heather  navigating a variety of distractions in our training room, such as toys and other dogs. With the leash no longer serving as a means of communication, we've increased our verbal cues and body language to maintain  Heather 's focus and encourage her adherence to commands.  Heather  shows a commendable ability to redirect her attention back to her handler after a few corrections for sniffing or looking at toys. She's eager to please, and we plan to continue enhancing her off-leash skills by exposing her to diverse environments in the coming weeks. The second video features  Heather  meeting a new friend, Jackie. This initial meeting is structured to ensure  Heather 's comfort and safety. We start with dual leashes—one with me and one with Jackie. As I guide  Heather  through commands, Jackie takes over, reinforcing  Heather ’s obedience under new leadership. My presence in the middle with the second leash ensures control if  Heather  shows any signs of using her teeth. This structured approach teaches  Heather  that following directions, especially from new people who make decisions, leads to rewards like treats, helping her quickly trust and feel comfortable with Jackie. We also demonstrate additional body language techniques that further facilitate  Heather 's comfort and bond-building with new people.  Hi, my name is  Heather . I am about 1.7 years old and 50 pounds. I am a beautiful Cattle Dog mix. I can be a little timid, and fearful at my first meetings.  BUT I LOVE treats and gentle talking.  So far, I prefer and trust the company of women, BUT I am learning with slow intros and TREATS that men are nice too! I need a foster family that will let me take my time with humans slowly, at my pace, to want to cuddle-snuggle!  I do cuddle and sit by your side as soon as I feel safe. Can you be my foster home and give me this chance? I get along with other dogs, and they help me to learn confidence.  I  need a home with adults only and would prefer a quiet lifestyle and a secure fenced yard. IS THIS YOU?  Please put in a foster application  https://eapl.com/become-foster-home/    or email  eaplevergreen@eapl.com  for more information.  Her adoption fee is $375. Put in an application at eapl.com March 10, 2025, 1:28 pm

Story
Lucky is a 4,5 years old rescue dog, we got him through a shelter in Boulder at age 1,5-2 y old. He is a good dog and trained by Blackpaw dog trainer. He never damages anything in the house, he sleeps in his crate, house trained for a long time. When he knows the people he is very good but he needs to be introduced properly. He is very good with my family, including 3 years old granddaughter, but he can be very protective of all of us when stranger comes. My husband has Alzheimer's and he is his dog and he is not handling him well and dog is getting very protective of him. He gets into fights with other dogs to protect him. He does listen to me but not him. That's why we want to rehome him to get him an owner he will respect and treat him properly. We love him very much but this is better for us and Lucky.
